Profile of 2017 Premier 100 Technology Leader Lisa M. Woodley, vice president, Digital Experience at NTT Data.
Imagine arriving at an unfamiliar train station and yet still knowing exactly where to go because you had a smart device that provided seamless instructions, relying on location beacons and internet of things (IoT) technologies to connect with and channel the necessary information.
Lisa M. Woodley, vice president of digital experience at NTT Data , an IT services and consulting company, can do more than imagine it, she built it. Woodley, who oversees a 20-member team, developed the technology as a proof of concept for a public transportation line in Australia.
It’s all in a day’s work for Woodley, 49.
“My focus is to forget about technology and talk to clients about the challenges they’re having and help them address those, and then help them focus on the technology innovation,” she says.
